No matter how many other versions of the rug I place, new infants are always locked to the plaid swatch one. It's not possible to switch them to a different rug, and in build mode the rug says you can't use the swatch tool.

The infant in the trailer (below) was using a different swatch so I assumed we'd be able to change it.

Edit to add:
I just checked and the plaid swatch is the only one that is object_infant_rug, the others are just regular object_rug
If this is intentional I feel kinda bummed because the trailer clearly implies that the other swatch can be used as an infant swatch, so can we pretty please have two versions of the rug set - one as infant rugs and one as... rugs?&nbsp;

@PipMenace The rug the baby rug is on top of is shown moments prior to the baby and baby rug being shown, implying imo that the one shown in the trailer can be used as a baby rug.

It's entirely possible they used trailer magic and the plaid one was the only baby rug ever meant to be for immobile infants, which would make this thread "by design", i just find it a little sad to only have the one rug for them + feel a tad mislead

It's not the biggest deal in the world, ofc 😂

The thing is... that image from the trailer is an infant that's already learned to sit up. Since base game infants don't have a rug, is it possible the infants just have that plaid one for as long as they can't sit up on their own, and then it goes away and they're like base game infants with no rug? And then in that screenshot the baby just happens to be sitting on a rug that's been placed in the build? I'd rather you be able to change the swatch, but I'm just considering possibilities...

Have you checked the baby care menu for setting preferences? I've heard you can set preferred carrier, maybe you can set preferred rug?
